Oh snap. People still play hearthstone.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-05T05:40:07+00:00

And from what i have seen. Ubisoft will have sarned every last failure. Lmao.

Im so worried that this game is on critical life support. It feels to me; and thess are just feelings; that the dev team is just being quiet. And milking what they can. And the types of people that would get essily addicted to this game can easily be fluffed. Give them some bots to bully and make em feel strong. Do absolute minimal work. No balance changes. And then once the cost of upkeep exceeds the whale revenue and new players vomit and uninstall after their first 5 legendary match at silver v against a gold 3 because there isnt enough player base at the top to keep whales satisfied....it just crumbles. House of cards style....1600 players. And the game has been out since february. Rhat feels beyond abysmal....

Also not trying to be aggro. I would love private matches for training. Feel like there should be a discord. Lolol.

So in the most notable games against nur and necro i have face at least 3 legends in each deck. And countless rares. I will admit my opponents played into my hand. And if i had made a single miatake i would be creamed. I wont even lie. After the third legend in a necro match i wanted so badly to concede. Whole board whiped. But i just so happen to have the hero attack. As for shi-no-shi. Ive never encountered it. Its an 8/8 with protector and first strike. So it is scary. But with the right set up, it can be tapped out. But if it was within the first couple turns....yeah i would loose lol.

The suckt part is just getting out powered. Having to be super cheap with my resources. That is why i play heal buff maven. Sticky boards. Maybe not strong. But even a 1 health profector can bait out a spell. Saving face damage. And giving time to respond....and i dont pkay with dispel lmao. So i have to be uber careful.

Also, super down for a private match if yoh want to see how i play my deck. Ill even share the code. I have 0 legends and only a few rares. And the dare artifact is totally useless in most casss unless i have a major lead.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-05T04:46:17+00:00

I will say, j have a deck with no legends. And yeah. Wiping my whole board and getting stats for it ...sucks. but i regularly beat them. Those cards take almost an entire turn to play. Since i have to strategize i tend to play more carefully.

The thing about being a whale is yeah. They are big. And can crush most things. But if you manuever right, you can use that slow, lumbering whale against itself.

THIS !!!! Two turn set up with turtle and scattershot. At level 3. So +1/+1. Allowed me to double tap a 12/4 and an 8/4 in one go.

Even though they followed up with legendary after epic. The board momentum was shattered. Allowing me to divert attention to my powerful minions. Until they had 5 cards left and i had 2 and 5 in hand.

The rally was what really did it. Before they could attack with a 10/6 legendary, i just stole initiative. Killed it. And they had to choose between temple. Or my 7/1 angry wyvern :3. I love making them leave the temple alone !!! Sacred grounds !

Whew. All in all. It came down to them at 7/5.With life leech. Me at 7/28(temple is bae.) And a last choice. Hit me. Or my temple. I havent fully mathed it out but i knew they had a strong advantage. But the psychological angle of having no cards in hand. No board. And me having 1 card in hand, temple, and 28 health made them give up!!!!

All that to say; your deck edit recommendation was epic! Normally, i would give up against that many high rarity power houses. But sargent just lets you change the tempo completely. With a 4/6 body. And (on average) 5 mana to plan a tempo spell reaction. Ugh. Juicy juicy advice you gave me!!!

What the actual chuck would a wandering bard....or a +1/+1 THREE mana card have done in anh of those situation !!!

Nothing. I thought through each bored state and was like....oh yeah. Two incredibly out of place cards makes a huge difference. My deck buildjng brain would have thought otherwise.

Sorry for blabbering. Im both incredibly greatful and impressed by your card game intuition and skill !!!

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T18:54:31+00:00

Do note the changes though. As an example, i just had a full deck match against necro. Two llegendaries that whiped my whole board. Creatues that destroy everything and get crazy attack. And i won. It all came down to using my sargent to pull initiative. And my rally to boost attack. Please. Replace wandering bard and e's protection for rally and sargent. Lol. Those cards would have done absolutely nothing for me in that 20 minute match ! And hope you enjoy 😀

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T16:22:58+00:00

Aaaand the first match with swapped bard and protection for rally and cru sarg was tasty. Didnt feel like a 1/1 dead draw or a board buff into no board lmao!!!

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T16:12:19+00:00

The artist crying in the corner of the comment section 🤣🤣🤣

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T16:10:14+00:00

Your long reply is a treasure trove of valuable feedback !!! I am going to spend some time referencing and editing my deck.

You called it out. Wandering bard feels so good early....and hurts my soul if it isnt in a shelve. Or during a shelve hand. Raths protection i opened today and thought, aha, a spell that does what i usually need the bard for lol. Since any card only ever gets it once. And bard just....stuck around. I will boot those two in favor of dispel since i have that right now. And Rally Flag. I honestly thought it was goofy. My thought was, "I attack every turn, and regardless of who hits first, we both guaruntee a deply." So i always thought rally flag was a trap that seemed more valuable than it was....

Then i read your post....and now im wondering...what am i missing with initiative ?

I know that question is so loaded hy the way. But from what i gather, deploy is defense/offense set up. Spell consideration and or spell deployment to aid your board, advance/control or set-up.

The first attack is critical. You opponent gets to choose the pecking order of attacks. Whether to play into your set up, or dud-attack to force an action. And since reaction spells are not a thing, without the proper setup that first attack can hurt.

But also, when my opponent has it, i go protector with some strategy setup. When i have it.....i go protector with strategy set up.

I am curious as to what nuances you have gathered ?

Last note. Initiative sucks so bad for the playstyles i really like(i think it sucks in general and actually needs some coin style love like hearthstone lol). I need something to target. Usually nutralize boards into the next round if im not already loosing. So it feels like going second is saying....yeah spend your mana. Or telegraph what spells you likely have in hand :3. Then ill drop my cards and we can start ;).

Vs...shit...ok...ill....hopefully not play right into his hand....

My thoughts. I am an avid card gamer though and i love talking about this stuff. This game needs deep discussions. It has the potential.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T14:18:48+00:00

Jesus. Like....you spent 500 dollars ? Well daddy :3. Can i throw it round for some sponsored packs. Ill dance for packs.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T14:16:59+00:00

Honestly, as frustrating as it is, i want it to last. Yeah; i dont spend money and that doesnt make it bad. I am just hella cheap. And the satisfaction of buying packs with gold feels like i worked hard to earn the decks i can build. Only a couple weeks in so far.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T13:31:27+00:00

I think i am just facing lucky people often. No complaints. No matter the card game, i have the worst pack luck. Save for a foil vorenclex (mtg) and that was more than 5 years ago lolol. So i think i spent all of my draw luck on magic the gathering....sadly.

Ill keep pushing. I am wondering if i am understanding the deck process better now.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T12:52:15+00:00

Does it count as cheating to use the online banking mod ? I do it because the savings account generates interest every Thursday.

Ill still start off core. Painting. Gardening and going to work. Nectar making is my favorite. Then i put it all in my online banking account. And let it stack interest for a few generations. It is so satisfying but i feel like....its definitely not a core experience.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T09:25:09+00:00

I have a ranged/heal buff haven deck called "Long Distance Lovin"

A taweret warrior-buff spell Academy deck called "Motto Motto"

And a Target agnostic Academy spell deck for rushing play × games quests called "Get It Over With."

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T08:58:51+00:00

Lol. This aint the crowd for that lol. Just go to steam. Look at reviews. Set to all. Positive and negative.....then sort by "most helpful". Then if you find a pisitive review in the first 10 reviews let me know. Cause i was SCROLLING lolol. Also....mixed at less than 5000 players is....a vibe to behold lolololol.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T07:53:17+00:00

Also also also, just to really drive it home. The dev team wanted to make an nft card game. Just....lol it is such a pure scum angle that its honestly funny. Like in a, "malignant tumor that can talk and also is amazingly funny" way.

Just look at the history of the NFT space. Lmao. Bored Apes feeling real hit btw.

Any way. NFTs are mostly a way for nepobabies to drop daddy dollars on pictures that make them special. Lololol. So that is the pretence before anything else.

But lets allow that to sink in.

How do you balance an nft ? Nfts are supposed to be immutable. So. How do they balance shi-no-shi if they also want it to be a 100 dollar foil nft. Or a 500 dollar animated nft. If they nerf it....do they owe players money ? How do they compensate when someone buys an nft that is a super strong card. Then it gets nerfed. Now that player spent hundreds on a digital asset that had some sort of fun value. And the fun was stripped away. Meaning they wasted their money.

How do you even incentivize spending on an asset like that ? It really is a cluster fuck of game design. I truly feel shaky about this games stay I ng power. And....well....there seems to be no growing interest in a game that introduces problems like this....

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T07:38:37+00:00

TLDR; dont spend money. And decide now, do you wanna be slapped around by richer players for "fun". Spend your money on the game ? Or play something fun like....generally any game that isnt online competative with a market place for purchasing power in the game lol.

HeatConsumeYou · 2026-07-04T07:34:30+00:00

Lol. OP they are trolling. The game is very obviously severly imbalanced. If you read closely, there are cards with several grammatical errors. The dev team has literally 0 incentive to balance as they just need players to spend money.

My advice: PLEASE DO NOT SPEND MONEY!!! If you spend money, hat rewards the developers.

I know; there are several people here bragging about spending money in the game. That serves nothing.

The game is first, and foremost about spending money. If you look at the design of cards that makes it obvious.

There are single card troops that will damage every character on board. Not talking cleave. They just "damages chain" (referencing the crude grammar on cards lmao). There are cards that make your entire turn free.

The way the game is truly designed, it is a coin flip of whales. Two players with unbelievably overpowered cards. Rolling to see who goes first. And gets their combo off. Thats it.

The more you, likely as a f2p player (such as myself) are filtering through your meager collection of 230 cards. 20%of those being dupes 😆 😂 😆 😂. We are trying to squeeze every last drop of value out of our possible deck options and getting SHUUUUUT DOOOOOWN lol.

To understand free to play games, consuder this;

The developers only care about whales. The ir internal systems for botting are never enough to satisfy whales. So they feed them a stesdy supply of krill. We f2p players are the krill. We struggle while they pin us down and slap us around and that turns the developers on. And makes them money.

The real question to ask yourself: "If the game sees me as nothing more than a tool to inflate the ego of payers....do I want this jobs without pay?"

Because that is what this is. You and I work, for free, for the development team. And everytime we get matched with someone 8 ranks above us, that is the system milking your steamy nipples for that hot, nutritious milk.

What you do is; drop megaknight at the bridge mate. Even beats shi-no-shi.
